Ok lego guys, i need some help. The year is 1985-87 the set i am looking for was that of a draw bridge/mini gatehouse and had a mini figure an black horse. My grandfather had ordered it and i got it in a brown box that said lego and the kit number but no pictures.

Un fortunitly my legos, and instructions were stolen from me in 88 or so. There for i dont have the set number or remember what the set was called. Does this discription ring a bell with anyone?

Doesn't ring a bell with me (that was my time as a kid and castle was my main theme/interest back then, great sets!) Have a look on brickset http://www.brickset.com/browse/themes/? ... eme=Castle great source for looking at sets and and then. If you find it it would be good to know which one it was

Thanks for the help guys. Alas none of the sets mentioned are it. The closeist is 6074, but it wasnt as complex. Perhaps i had a prototype that never went to production who knows.... like i said it was a plain brown box said lego with a p/n. An i went thru all the brickset info an nota. I really dislike the little puke who took my legos from the bus stop whilst going to school. Ah well it was worth a shot.

Could it be the alternate build of the original Blacksmith shop http://brickset.com/detail/?set=6040-1The instructions came with 2 ways to build this set. One way to build was as the Blacksmith the other build was a small tower a figure and a black horse.
